warnings and guarantees follow the indications for installation and use written in the present guide and as general respect the rules of the good sense and the normal role for on board use devices the missed observance of those rules can cause malfunction damages or loss of properties and human lives planus declines every responsibility for damages to people or things originated by the bad use and by the wrong installation planus warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship the warranty period is twentyfour 24 months see planus marine general warranty terms general information the planus toilet is basically composed by three parts a toilet in ceramic containing the discharge pump a flush controller a device for the water inlet solenoid or inlet pump the 3 components must be electrically and hydraulically connected between them some needed materials as i.e tubes and screws are not supplied be sure all the needed materials are available before setting the work it s strictly recommended the usage of qualified personnel for electrical and hydraulic installation important · · · · · if the toilet is placed beneath the water line the installation of a ventilation valve at a sufficiently higher level is needed all possible navigational conditions must be taken into account when estimating the water line the valves of ventilation furnished if required must be adequately installed along the hydraulic line of outlet and/or inlet the seacock must be installed properly to avoid that pressure is generated on the plumbing during sailing before starting the installation of the toilet planus make sure that the plant respects all the indications included in this manual in case of doubts or uncertainties please contact our technical staff 2

typologies of installation the toilet planus can directly work with fresh water or marine water and being installed above or under the waterline however it is necessary to determine in which conditions will have to operate the wc in order to execute a correct installation of it it is also opportune to understand preventively the characteristics of the several available flush controller and to take it in consideration while choosing the implant characteristics of available flush controllers single button flush controllers family switch and one button control panel by the pressure of the single button the automatic flush sequence is activated it determines the addition of fresh water for the rinse and the activation of the discharge pump in a pre-set sequence at the end a certain quantity of water remains into the bowl in order to have to toilet ready for next usage the family switch doesn t have any led for full tank indicator double buttons control panel before the usage the user must activate the pre-filing sequence with water by the usage of the left button before use at the end by the pressure of the right button after use the automatic flush sequence will be activated after that the bowl will remain dry choose of fresh or marine water usage fresh water centralized system fig 1 connect the toilet to the pressurized fresh water plant by the usage of a ¾ pipe it s possible to easily realize a derivation from the common cold water line already present in the bathroom to serve the other devices as the sink along this line it must be installed the solenoid the exact location of the solenoid along the line is basically irrelevant 3

marine water system it must be used a pump to fill the bowl with sea water the plant is different depending by the usage of a unique centralized pump not supplied by planus used for all the onboard toilets or by the usage of a single inlet pump for each toilet supplied by planus marine water centralized system fig 2 each toilet must be connected to the unique centralized pump adding between pump and toilet a solenoid for each toilet the exact location of the solenoid along the line is basically irrelevant basically respect the indication of the manufacturer for the installation of the inlet pump strictly respect the safety rules for the realization of the seacock for the electrical connection please note that control panels and solenoids must be connected to the inlet pump in a proper way to avoid back signals able to activate at once all the solenoids connected with the consequence that all the toilets on board will be filled of water while one toilet is used a possible technical solution is as example the addition of relays not supplied­ see fig.8 independent marine water system fig 3 connect each single inlet pump to its toilet connect the inlet pipe of each pump to a properly realized seacock respect the safety rules for the realization of the seacock it is basically irrelevant if each inlet pump is connected to a dedicated seacock or if all the pumps are connected to the same seacock the exact location of the inlet pump along the line is basically irrelevant 4

hydraulic system installation outlet examples of equipment are given for purely illustrative purposes the high performances of the vortex pump gives the greatest possible flexibility in planning the route of the discharge hoses fig 4 fig 5 fig 6 notes the vortex pump is capable of discharging into a holding tank even at a significant distance or directly to the sea in case of discharge into the sea check if the addition of a ventilation valve along the discharge line is needed and if in any possible sailing condition the toilet could be placed under the waterline or close to it the discharge into the sea is subject to specific local rules 6

water level regulation control panel with one button and family switch when the toilet isn t used the water level must be 1 cm above the outlet hole in the ceramic bowl anyway for different installation condition water level adjustment could be required if so turn the shaft trimmer in the rear part of the control panel up to adjust the level at 1 cm above the outlet ceramic hole control panel with two buttons from stand by position when the bowl is completely empty pressing before use button the bowl will be automatically filled up to the correct water level at 1 cm above the outlet hole in the ceramic bowl anyway for different installation condition water level adjustment could be required if so turn the shaft trimmer in the rear part of the control panel up to adjust the level at 1 cm above the outlet ceramic hole accessories toilet with integrated bidet water jet artic and elite ranges toilets are available with integrated bidet water jet connect the water mixer to the hot and cold water piping while using start the sequence for flushing the toilet before filling the bowl black water tank sensor it is possible to connect the control panel one or two buttons to a tank sensor level provided as an optional for the electric connection refer to the diagram on page 7 while reaching the alarm level the led status of the control panel will change color from green to red notes 1 the full tank signal red light does not stop operating 2 the family switch haven t a led for full tank indicator 9
